Result: Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ built and delivered a complete hydraulic system, including hydraulic cylinders, power units, proportional control manifolds and accumulators. The system solved the challenge of deceleration and braking of a large electric actuator. In an ironic twist, the original motion simulator design was hydraulic, then later was changed to a large electric actuator. During the design process, it was discovered that while the electric actuator had the capability to move and control the load, it did not have the capacity to decelerate and stop the load-hydraulics to the rescue!!

The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Advantage: The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Team was able to provide a completely assembled, fully integrated hydraulic system, pre-tested and ready for installation. We worked directly with our customer to solve the complex control scheme required to achieve the desired result-accurate dynamic control with safety and redundancy features.

Result: The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Team provided a custom control and hydraulic valve system for closed loop control of a 22 foot stroke hydraulic cylinder to move a platform rapidly and in a controlled, repeatable movement for the entertainment industry. Flow rates in excess of 1,000 GPM made the application an interesting challenge, to say the least!

The Ä¢¹½ÊÓƵ Advantage: We were able to provide a custom, unique solution to the application challenge that accomplished the demanding performance requirements in a single manifold. The innovative approach to the application maximized not only performance, but also efficiency to minimize heat loss and component reduction to contain overall costs of the project.
